Area of Science:

  • Educational Psychology
  • Occupational Health Psychology

Background:

  • Communication apprehension is a common issue affecting teachers.
  • Resilience is crucial for educators facing workplace challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the correlation between communication apprehension and resilience in elementary school teachers.
  • To understand the interplay of these two personality characteristics in an educational context.

Main Methods:

  • Survey research design.
  • Participants: 200 elementary school teachers.
  • Measures: Personal Report of Communication Apprehension (PRCA) and Personal Resilience Questionnaire (PRQ).

Main Results:

  • A statistically significant negative correlation (r = -.33) was found between communication apprehension and resilience.
  • This correlation indicates that 10% of the common variance between the two measures is explained by their relationship.

Conclusions:

  • Teachers experiencing higher levels of communication apprehension tend to exhibit lower levels of resilience.
  • Findings suggest that interventions aimed at reducing communication apprehension may positively impact teacher resilience and well-being.
